OIL PRICES ARE FALLING DUE TO PRESIDENT TRUMP'S LEADERSHIP

OIL PRICES FALL 

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump is the great negotiator in chief.  Today, oil prices fell to between $80.20 dollars a gallon and $86.38 dollars a gallon.  That is due to the fact that President Trump is a great commander in chief, and as a businessman,n he knows how to get things done.  But the Arabs of the world are not going to be happy that they're losing money in the long run.  So I predict there is going to be another terrorist attack on American interests, st possibly on September 11 or sooner.  

President Trump's talks with peace negotiators are credited with the effort.  It seems to me that a businessman is getting a lot more done in the world than a politician.  The fact of the matter is the mainstream politicians are afraid of President Trump since he is succeeding where politicians fail.  He is beating them at their own game.  If an outsider can be successful, it puts all the politicians in jeopardy.

In actuality, we have to give credit to the fact that Oman has been a major player in the negotiations.  Let us not forget that the biggest state sponsor of terror,ror Iran r, has also helped out in the effort.  Now, as far as the Middle East is concerned, ast wanting their oil prices down, the only reason I can think of is that a long, drawn-out war is bad for business and public relations.  As always, comments are accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP MUST WIN HIS TRADE WAR WITH CANADA

  TRUMP MUST WIN HIS TRADE WAR

By: Derek Varsalona

Not many people in America have the appetite for a trade war with their neighbor to the North in Canada.     That is why there is only one President, and President Trump is a great Commander in Chief.  The fact of the matter is America has been getting taken advantage of for too long.  The world and Canda has been acting like an abusive parent.  Now it is time for the United States to act like child protective services and clean house.

President Trump is going to destroy relations with Canada, and that is alright.  Maybe making Canada the 51st state does seem enticing.  Now, the only thing left is for Long Island to secede from New York and become its own state.  Like Canada, New York has been taking advantage of Long Islanders for years.  Long Island pays the most taxes and gets hardly anything but a hard time in return.

As for Canada, I say let the tariffs ring.  President Trump is right to start the trade war with Canada.  It is a war we can and must win.  Thank God for President Trump.  As always, comments accepted.

RENO FIRE HIS HUMAN CAUSED

 

PRAY FOR THE PEOPLE OF RENO

By: Derek Varsalona

Readers beware.  The people of Reno are now going through a living hell and an inferno, literally.  An out-of-control fire is literally burning down the city.  Fire fighters are hard to reach the burning areas.  AS of now 42, 000 residents are ordered to leave Reno.

This out-of-control fire is caused by some nut job decided to light a match or put out a cigarette.  I think the option is both cases.  This is a result of climate change in the area.  Climate Change is literally killing us every day of the year, and this Reno fire proves it.

President Trump must go visit the area, not for the fact that he needs to see if his Reno Casino is safe.  It probably isn't.  As always, comments accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP IMPOSES TARIFFS ON CANADA

TRUMP HITS CANADA WITH TARIFFS

By: Derek Varsalona

I applaud President Trump for hitting Canada with tariffs.  For too long, America has been getting screwed by the rest of the world.  That ends today, thank god for President Trump.

President Trump has claimed that the Canadians have taken advantage of American farmers.  That is so true.  Slavery has ended in America and Canada, and that is a good thing.  But American farmers should not be beholden to Canada.  It is time for Canada to pay the piper.

The Canadian tariffs start on September 8, 2026.  It is time we have a President stand up for American interests and not be beholden to the rest of the world.  As always, comments accepted.

PRESIDENT TRUMP IS RIGHT TO IMPOSE TARIFFS ON CANADA

    SUPPORT PRESIDENT TRUMP'S TARIFFS ON CANADA

By: Derek Varsalona

To citizens of the United States and the rest of the world.  Life under President Trump's regime is going to get even more expensive.  A tariff is nothing other than a tax on the American public and the general public of the rest of the world.  As of right now, life is going to get more expensive with a 5% tariff on all products traded between the United States and Canada.  The main driver of the tariff is the tax on hockey sticks to Canada.

I do support these tariffs on the Canadians.  The 5% tariff on hockey sticks is needed to stop our trade imbalance in the world.  If the professional hockey teams in Canada want to start a fight on center ice, that is fine with me.  Just to let you know, with the guns out and blazing, blood will be drawn from a sucker punch,h and in the end the Canadians will not have a skate to stand on. As always, comments accepted.

TRUMP'S SANCTIONS ON IRAN WILL ONLY HURT THE POOR IRANIANS

  SANCTIONS WILL NOT WORK ON IRAN

By: Derek Varsalona

President Trump is going to deliver the toughest sanctions in world history on Iran today.  These sanctions will not work in the long run, and they will not cripple the Iranian government, nor will they stop them from building a nuclear weapon.

President Trump is set to deliver the toughest sanctions on Iran this morning.  These sanctions are going to have a reverse reaction.  It is going to hurt the general public from getting much needed food, water, and medicine from entering the nation of Iran.  

These sanctions are not going to hurt or topple the regime.  There are only two ways to topple the regime.  The first way is for an outright assassination against the leaders of Iran, both religious,s taking out the Ayatollah, and taking out the political leaders of Iran.  Sanctions are only going to stop much-needed food, water, and supplies from getting to the people that need it most.  Take out the leadership of Iran by physical force, not sanctions.

US NATIONAL DEBT PASSES $ 4O TRILLION

 NATIONAL DEBT IS $ 40 TRILLION

By: Derek Varsalona

The national debt is now 40 trillion dollars, according to economic estimates.  Do not look for that to be paid down any time soon.  Both sides of the government- Democrats and Republicans- love to increase their spending.  Republicans on endless wars and Democrats on endless social programs that must be reformed.

The national debt is a staggering $40 trillion. Something needs to be done to make the programs solvent.  The programs that are the biggest liability are Social Security and Medicare.  The way to cure that is the fact that we need to raise the retirement age to 70 in order to keep these programs afloat.  The fact is, when these programs were made,e they did not expect people to be living that long.  FDR was the one who ushered in the era of big government, with many social programs after the Great Depression.  

Social Security and Medicare are the biggest drivers of the national debt.  There is no way to solve this national debt crisis.  We are too far gone down the rabbit hole to cure it.  The way to save money is to enact Medicare for All to save money over time.  But if Medicare for All is truly for all, then the President of the United States and Congress, along with all government officials, must go on it.  As for saving Social Security, which is a socialized pension that people pay into, you need to stop giving it to illegal immigrants and raise the retirement age to 70.  As always, comments accepted.
